Flights to Berkley, Darlington from NT$6,099

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Berkley could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Here are some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Berkley, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
